Superbe Pinot de CA au style Bourguignon, belle surprise en suivant tous ces beaux Bourgognes, du fruit à revendre, ne faisait pas son age.

Very nice Pinot from CA, has a Burgundy feel and texture to it, lots of fruit, well balanced, not even showing his age, very classy. 91-92 — 4 days ago

Magnum, from a private cellar sold via wine store. The concentration is there, but the vibrancy & fruit are on the downward slope. But a 40$ experiment well worth the pull. — 5 days ago

Legendary Loss

Calera founder Josh Jensen passed away earlier this month after a lifetime of achievements that included elevating American Pinot Noir on the world stage

Day 1
Served this with the Vinloq System
👃Bold, sexy, purple fruit floods from the glass endlessly
👅Spicy purple fruit, blood orange, sasafras, and licorice. A gentle tannic pull on the smoke tinged finish. Drinking well

Remaining wine was Slow Decanted in my refrigerator

DAY 10
👃Sweet, spicy, purple fruits with more vanilla, oak, vegetal, and tobacco notes than Day 1
👅Same sweet plummy fruit with tobacco and licorice. Fruit forward but balanced. Soft tannins and no heat

I did not have a preference for Day 1 or Day 10. There were more oak notes on both the nose and palate on Day 10. Two solid showings👍This is solidly in its drinking window & will be there for quite some time 🍷 — 5 hours ago

Vintage 2010 | Awesome! Malvasia and Sangiovese. 325 Gr residual sugar. Honey. Caramel. Abricot. Above all the most charming acidity that makes this wine a treat to taste. 6 years barriques. Stunning. 1.000 half bottles made. — 7 days ago

Un vin encore tout jeune, tout d’un bloc au depart mais il s’est ouvert en carafe tout au long de la soirée. Fruits noirs et rouges, tres complexe, bien qu’intense, le vin s’avère bien balancé entre les différentes saveurs, fruits, herbes, les épices. Charmant maintenant et fort bon! — a month ago

Light straw yellow.
Very expressive and generous. Not as sweet as anticipated, which is a good thing. Lots of ginger and beautiful lemony fruity notes (-zest, -curd, -oil). Touches of apricot, pineapple,lychee and pickles. Tropical flowers, as well.
Gorgeous wine! — 3 days ago
